A much better night than last night
but the final results do not show it. Tim qualified 7th quick and made the
transfer with a 3rd in the second heat. With a 13th start in the "A"
things were not looking too bad. Tim has history of working his way to the
front. It was not to be tonight as mechanical problems developed and Tim
was forced to pull it in around lap 22. Coming off the 2010 season with a
Knoxville Win and All Star Champion ship puts a lot of pressure on a team.
The CH Team and Tim did not rest on their laurels but followed it up with
another great year.

Just looking at Tim's limited
season with the Outlaws. 1-Win 8-top 5's 12 top 10's and a
Quick Time. This is just one incredable feat for a team running such a
limited schedule.

Not sure what plans Tim has for
the off season, other than enjoying time with his wife and son. If any
other decisions are made, we will get them too you as soon as we can.

As I expected a all out effort was made by Tim and the
CH Motorsports crew. Tim missed the the transfer by finishing 6th in the
first heat right behind the fast qualifier. Tim's time put him 2nd and he
was held able to hold on to that to go to the "B". The field for the "B"
looked more like a "A" with the fastest qualifier on the pole. Coming in
from the "C" put Tim on the tail of the field. he worked his way up
to 13th, and did not make the transfer to the Main. Just like several
other drivers who found themselves in the same boat, we will put this
behind us and move on to Saturday nights season final. Watch it to night
on Speed Channel, 8pm Eastern time. Go Tim!

Nov. 3rd, 2011 (Charlotte
N.C.) Dirt Track Finals - Qualifying

Tonight will be a real challenge for Tim and the CH
Motorsports team after weather interrupted last nights time trials. The
bottom line is the time that Tim will go into tonight show with. Tim
turned a disappointing 13.251 in Friday nights trials putting him 36th in
a stout field of 55. No time to sulk, it happens. Knowing Tim as I do he
will go out their and put the peddle to the metal and make the best of it.
No doubt the CH crew will give him the car to do it with. Tonight will be
the race plus qualifying for Saturday night.

Tim was locked into
B-main #1 (by points) where he started and finished 3rd (not a lot of
passing). This placed the Craig Minks owned No. M1 of Shaffer eleventh on
the "A" starting grid. When the dust settled The Steel City Outlaw was
10th. It wasn't a win, but a top - 10 from over 100 cars isn't too bad.

Next up for Shaffer &
CH Motorsports No. 83 is Nov 3,4,5 at the WoO finale @ The Dirt Track at
Charlotte motor Speedway. GO TIM!!

There are
approximately 100 Sprint Car (360) teams at the high-banked, ¼-mile I-30
Speedway for this year's "STN". There are two full preliminary nights of
action (Thursday & Friday) leading up to Saturday's A-main which pays
$15,000 to win, and $2,400 to start.

A total of 51 cars checked in for
Thursday nights preliminary action, which included Aliquippa's own Tim
Shaffer piloting the Casey Minks owned No. M1 sprinter. After accumulating
points from both his heat race and Qualifier Shaffer wound up starting 9th
(by points) in the twenty five lap A-main. During the "A" Shaffer put the
#M1 through its paces and in the end advanced to finish fifth. With only
the top-3 finishers from both prelim's locking into tonight's finale Tim
will have to qualify through one of the B-mains. Stay tuned for more
action from the STN.

Great Night until the finale! Tim qualified the C/H
Racing 83 in 15th place, followed by winning the 3rd heat. A 7th place
finish in the dash put him on the 4th row, and with a little work to do in
the "A". Tim was up for the challenge as he was in second place and
pressing by lap 24. It was just not to be though as on lap 34 Tim spun
trying to get around a lapped car. Just one of those things, a short tight
track can become really difficult in traffic. Again Brian and the crew
gave Tim a competitive machine. These nights just happen, hopefully not
often.

Tim
timed 12th fast (16.774) on the huge 5/8 mile oval aboard his Aaron Call /
Janet Holbrook owned machine. Shaffer won his heat
race which placed him tenth in the fast dash; where he advanced to 8th.
In the A-main Shaffer lined up
his Kistler Engines, Kistler Racing Products, VRP Shocks backed J&J (8th)
outside row #4. There was a lot of good hard racing action throughout the
25 lap "A", but when the checkers flew The Steel City Outlaw was 3rd.
Another solid run for the CH Motorsports Team.

Its a big race on a challenging
track but the CH Motorsports crew gave Tim a great car. Tim qualified 9th
and was able to transfer to the "A" in the 4th heat. Not being eligible
for the Dash it was elbows up in the "A". Tim was up to the task,
starting 17th and finishing 5th.Quite a achievement at the "Grove".

The CH Motorsports machine was quick
@ Eldora. Tim lined up 3rd in the A-main with a fast car. When the thirty
lap "A" went green Shaffer put the pedal to the metal and within a few
laps the Aliquippa, PA Native was out in front. The Call/Holbrook owned
machine was on cruise control as Shaffer proceeded to distance himself
from the field. At one point Shaffer had a full straightaway lead.
However, it all fell apart with a handful of laps remaining when Rob
Chaney flipped in turn one right in front of The Steel City Outlaw. Tim
was on the inside lapping another car when that car went low to avoid. The
two cars touched wheels sending Shaffer spinning. The CH Motorsports
machine didn't have any damage from the spin, so Tim was able to restart,
unfortunately Tim had to restart at the tail of the field with only seven
laps to go. In the end Shaffer rallied back to finish 7th.

It
was not a night for passing at Eldora Friday night. This often happens
when there is a strong threat for rain. Tim had no trouble making the "A"
passing 2 cars in the first heat for the transfer but did not have a fast
enough time to make the dash. A 16th place start in the feature landed the
C&H Motorsports 83 in 14th at the checkers. Its off to Tim's home track
tonight for the WoO final visit there of 2011. No doubt Tim and the team
are pumped for it.

Tim timed eighth fast (16.223)
aboard the #83 Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook owned machine. Shaffer
transferred to the dash where he finished 4th. In the A-main Shaffer lined
his Kistler Engines, Kistler Racing Products No. 83 outside of row #2
(fourth). Even though the car count was low there was a lot of close
racing action on the big 1/2 mile track, but when the dust settled The
Steel City Outlaw finished right where he started..4th.

September 17, 2011
-All-Stars- The Steel City Outlaw 2nd in Freemont 50 lapper.

It was
good point night for the CH Motorsports Team. Tim timed eighth fast
(12.98) aboard the #83 Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook owned machine. The Steel
City Outlaw made the transfer threw his heat race, but missed the dash by
one spot. In the A-main Shaffer lined his Kistler Engines, Kistler Racing
Products, VRP Shocks backed J&J seventh... There was a lot of close racing
action throughout the action packed 50 lap event, but when the dust
settled on the fast 1/3 Mile semi-banked clay oval (with softwalls) The
Steel City Outlaw was 2nd. It was a photo finish with the margin of
victory only .045 seconds between first & second place.There's nothing like a fifty lap
race to keep the fans excited, and boy did they get their money's worth @
Freemont Speedway!!

Post race quote from Tim Shaffer..“I was inching up on him (Bryan Sebetto)
little by little and if I had a chance I knew it would be in one and two
and I hit it right…boy I nailed it that time and got a run on him down the
back straight away. And then it got kind of funneled down and got tight
and I was like ‘man I got underneath him but I pushed up the track. It was
just a great race and a lot of fun. Bryan and his guys did a great
job…hats off to them..If anyone had to beat me I’m glad it was him…he’s a
good friend. We gave him a shot at it. These guys have been doing a great
job here all year.”

It was a great night for Shaffer and
the CH Motorsports Kistler Engines/Kistler Racing Products backed No.83.
Shaffer set fast time, made the transfer to the fast dash where he
finished 4th. In the thirty lap A-main Shaffer riffled his way to the
front and never looked back! When the dust settled Shaffer was parked in
Victory Lane standing beside his Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook No. 83 Machine.

This was Tim's 45th career All Star
win. The Steel City Outlaw is now tied for sixth on the series’ all-time
win list, just eight wins behind All-Star great Frankie Kerr.

Shaffer post race quote: “Things really got interesting there for
awhile…it was a great race. I didn’t think we were going to get there. But
Brian (Kemenah, crew chief) and guys did such a great job on the car…it
came on late. That caution helped a bunch…it seemed like everything kind
of fell our way tonight,”

Shaffer added, “You have to take it
when it happens like this because a lot of nights it don’t. That’s dirt
track racing…it changes all night and my guys changed the car and hit it
right on the money. Tomorrow’s a whole new night and things can change.
You have to start with a good qualifying effort and get through your heat
and go from there. It will be a longer race which I seem to like…I just
hope we can be up here tomorrow.”

The Aaron Call/Janet
Holbrook owned machine unloaded fast. The Kistler Racing Products/Kistler
Engines backed #83 timed 11th quick from the 38 cars. In heat race #3
Shaffer made the Transfer by finishing 2nd (started 4th. He followed that
up with a WIN in the Fast Dash. The 83 of Shaffer started on the pole in
the A-main and led every lap! It was a flag to flag win for the
Call/Holbrook 83 Team.This makes it three wins in a row for The Steel City
Outlaw!

This
brings Tim's All-Star win career total to 44 moving him into a tie for
sixth on the All-time win list. Shaffer only needs 9 more All Star feature
wins to catch four-time series champion Frankie Kerr for fifth. GO TIM!!

Post
race Quotes from The Steel City Outlaw “It’s amazing…it really is. It’s a
lot of fun. When you have a great team and great people behind you…Paul
Kistler with the engines and J&J Chassis…everybody. .........It all goes
back to a great team from the owners to the people working on it…just
everything.”

Sept. 2nd, 2011 Steel City
Outlaw Pleases Home Track Crowd with a Victory.

There is no place like home, there
is nothing like a Victory at Home. Tim thrilled the crowd "including the
fans on the bus trip from Kendrew's Pub". Tim made the Transfer in the 3rd
heat with a 4th place finish. He followed that with a 3rd in the Dash.
Started 3rd in the "A" and piloted the Call/Holbrook 83 to Victory Lane.

The
CH Motorsports #83 machine was fast @ MRP. The Steel City Outlaw qualified
2nd quick from the 31 cars entered. In heat race # 2 Shaffer piloted the
Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook No. 83 to 3rd after starting 6th. This put
Shaffer on the pole for the six lap fast dash, which he won. This placed
The Aliquippa, PA Native on the pole for the thirty
lap A-main..........At the start of the "A" Shaffer settled into 2nd place
behind outside pole sitter Daryn Pittman. Shaffer battled hard for the
lead for fourteen circuits before snatching the lead from Pittman. The
Steel City Outlaw stretched out his lead in the closing laps earning his
42nd career All-Star victory.

It was
a night of seconds for The Steel City Outlaw. Tim qualified the
Call/Holbrook machine 2nd quick from 19 cars. In the second heat race
Shaffer charged from his 6th place starting spot to finish 2nd. In the six
lap fast dash the CH Motorsports machine finished right where it started
2nd......In the "A" Shaffer started from the outside pole (2nd) and thirty
dusty laps later he crossed the finish line in second place.

The CH
Motorsports Team hopes to better their finish by one position this
Saturday (Aug 20) at Butler Speedway, Quincy, MI. GO TIM!!

It was
another decent finish for the CH Motorsports No. 83 Team. Tim timed 12th
for the stellar field of forty cars. Tim finished 3rd in his heat after
starting fourth. With his starting position mid-pack (12th) Tim knew he
had his work cut for him. Like always the CH Crew was up for the
challenge. It was a battle from the beginning to the end with The Steel
City Outlaw coming out 5th in the thirty lap A-feature. It was a good
points night for the #83 Team. This team never gives up!

Tim timed third fast (10.939) aboard the #83 Aaron
Call/Janet Holbrook owned machine. The Steel City Outlaw transferred to
the dash where he finished 4th. In the A-main Shaffer lined his Kistler
Engines, Kistler Racing Products, VRP Shocks backed J&J fifth. There was a
lot of close racing action throughout the thirty lap "A", but when the
dust settled on the fast 3/8 mile high-banked dirt oval The Steel City
Outlaw was 2nd.

Post race quote from Tim Shaffer, “It’s all about putting a great show on
for the fans and this was a fun place tonight. Earlier you could run the
bottom and the top both and then when lapped traffic comes into
play…that’s when it really gets exciting. It works out however it works
out…we don’t know, we’re just hanging on to these things. I have to thank
Kistler Engines, Kistler Racing Products, VRP Shocks and all my crew for
their hard work all season long.”

Another amazing run by the "Steel City Outlaw". With his
starting position (19th) I knew a lot of breaks would have to go Tim's way
in order to defend last years victory. Tim did not disappoint his fans
with the performance he put on tonight. 19th to 4th is a feat in any
sprint car feature. But in the Knoxville Nationals with most of the best
drivers in the world in the field, he is the real deal. In the 11 plus
years that I have been doing this site, Tim has never disappointed me.
Great Job Tim, Brian and Crew!

Tim's
luck was much better then on his qualifying night. Danny Holtgraver put
Tim on the pole with a "Revenge Draw" and Tim never gave up the lead.
Running his Knoxville low groove and saving his tires he held off a
challenge by Shane Stewart in the last 3 laps to Win the event. It was a
stellar field with past Nationals Winners, Series Champs and Track
Champions.

“The Steel City Outlaw” will have his work cut out for him on Saturday.
The blown engine on causing the dnf in his qualifier will put him 19th
in the field. Its a long race and whoever has tires left in the final
laps have a advantage. GO TIM !

The
CH Motorsports #83X was pretty fast as Tim qualified 6th quick from the
forty five cars with a time of 15.077. In heat race #2 Shaffer moved up
finishing 5th after starting 7th. Things were looking good for the CH Team
in the 25 lap A-main, Tim was on the move, the car was working good, but
unfortunately it all ended on lap twenty three when the power plant in
Shaffer's sprinter went south. Tim was out for the night. In the end The
Steel City Outlaw earned 440 points which is 10th overall on night #1.

Saturday, August 06, 2011
ASCoC - Tim Kick-offs the winged 410 portion
of the Nationals with a 4th place finish by The Steel City Outlaw

A stellar field of 49 cars showed up at Knoxville for
the All Star sanctioned event Saturday night. Tim qualified 14th, won his
heat for a 10 place starting spot in the "A". A early yellow started Tim's
move to the front and by lap 9 he was 5th and by the mid-way point he was 4th where he finished.

Wow, what a weekend for the CH Motorsports No. 83 Team.
Knoxville was a busy place and It all started on Thursday with night #1 of
qualifying getting rained out. This meant that both qualifying nights of
the 360 Nats would be run on Friday. The CH Motorsports No. 83 timed 5th
(16.287) fast from 49 (360) cars. Shaffer started 6th in heat race and
finished 4th. So, after 98 "360" sprint cars completed their qualifying
and heat races all their points were tallied up. Tim locked into the
A-main in the 9th spot. The Call/Holbrook Kistler Engines, Kistler Racing
Products, Technique Roofing Systems J&J was hooked up and on the move. The
Steel City Outlaw had charged into the top 3 with ten or so laps to
go.......And with only a handful of laps remaining Shaffer slid by Sammy
Swindell to grab the runner up spot. Now The Aliquippa, PA Native set his
sights on race leader Shane Stewart, who started from the pole. Tim ran
the leader down, but fell short a bit finishing 2nd. This race was shorted
5 laps due to bad weather in the area. Tim said, "I needed those 5 laps!".

August 3, 2011 All-Stars -
Fast in Fargo! The CH Motorsports No. 83 is back in Victory Lane!

Tim
wins @ Red River Valley Speedway grabbing the All-Star point lead in the
process. Shaffer timed 4th quick from the stellar field of twenty seven
sprinters. In heat race #1 Tim lined up inside of row three (5th) and
finished fourth. This placed The Steel City Outlaw in the fast dash where
he advanced one position to finish second, which placed the Kistler
Engines, Kistler Racing Products, VRP Shocks CH Motorsports No. 83 on the
outside pole (2nd) for the A-main. In the "A" the racing action was close,
side by side and nose to tail, inches apart at times, but when the dust
settled it was two time All-Star Champion Tim Shaffer taking the checkers
followed by 4-time WoO star Donny Shatz. On this night the Aaron
Call/Janet Holbrook machine was the best!!

Next
up for the CH Motorsports Team is the "21st Annual 360 Knoxville
Nationals" on Aug. 4,5,6. GO TIM!!

It was
a solid performance for the CH Motorsports Team.
Tim timed 5th fast from 29 cars. Shaffer finished 3rd in heat race #2
after starting 5th. The CH Motorsports machine crossed the stripe 5th in
the six lap Fast Dash race, this placed Tim 5th on the A-main grid. In the
30 lap "A" The Steel City Outlaw advanced a couple spots finishing 3rd.

It
was "Former Track Champion Night" as Tim shared twin "A" Main Wins with
Dale Blaney. Tim Won the overall "Gold Cup Championship" by having the
best combined finish. Tim fought Blaney in the first main with Dale coming
out on top and Tim 2nd. The second feature was a
stellar performance for Tim as the field was inverted and Tim had to
start 17th. He worked his way through the tough crowd of Outlaws and took
advantage of a rare mistake by the "King of the Outlaws" Steve Kinser. "It
was like Christmas man," a smiling Tim Shaffer said. "Steve Kinser rarely
ever makes a mistake and you have to take advantage of it when he does. We
had a great car all evening long and our car worked very well. It was a
very racy surface and our car ran extremely well all night light. This is
just awesome." Tim Interview
Video Link.

A weekend that started so well on Friday ended 11 laps
into the "A". Qualifying was close as
the first 35 cars were all in the 13 second bracket. Tim clocked in at
13.840 for 25th quick. This gave him a 5th place start in the 1st heat
that Tim turned into a 3rd for the transfer. A 13th place starting
position for the "A" kept Tim in contention for a good finish and possible
win. The race ended early for Tim and others as fellow Pa. driver Ed Lynch
Jr. was fed some right rear and flipped. Several
cars were collected in the melee including the 83X C&H car. Several cars
were damaged too bad to fix during the red including Tim's. The crew is
already working to put together a good car for the Don Martin Memorial
Silver Cup coming up this Tuesday. This is a big race on our schedule as
it is at Lernerville Tim's home track. Having won it in the past does not
in the least Tim's desire to win there in front of his home town fans.

July 15, Eldora Speedway -
Tim and the CH Motorsports Team Swept the NB4

What
a night! Heat, Dash and then the "A". What can I say, Tim, Brian and the
Crew had the BIG E figured out tonight. Tim was first out and ran as great
lap of 13.570 for 12th fast on a green track. He was fortunate to get into the Dash after Winning the 4th
Heat, apparently a couple of cars did not make their transfer from the
heat. Winning the Dash put him on the pole for the "A". The "A" was no
cake walk, not in a WoO race. It was a stellar field behind Tim and he
needed his A game to get it done. Jason Myers took the lead early on after
a flip by Kraig Kinser on the first lap caused a complete restart. Tim
then set his sites on Jason, ran him down and passed him by lap 10. But it
was not over. Jason Myers then ran Tim down with 5 laps to go, challenged
him and it looked like he had the lead when a yellow flag nullified the
pass. When the green flew again Tim stood on it and led to the Checkered
Flag !

The
Brad Doty Classic has become one of the most prestigious races of the
year. Run under the WoO sanction it draws some of the best drivers in the
country, including some that have moved up into the "Big Leagues" of
racing. This year even NASCAR stars Tony Stewart and Kasey Kahne showed
up. And believe me they have not lost the desire or skills to run the
dirt. It was not a bad night for the CH Motorsports 83, Tim managed to
qualify 11th in this stellar field of 39. Transferred from his heat by
finishing 4th. As most of you know you have to qualify in the top 10 and
transfer to make the dash that determines the starting line-up. Well the
top 10 all made it leaving Tim out of the party. He hung in there and
finished 11th, not a bad finish. Now its on to Eldora for a two night WoO
party with the Kings Royal being the big prize for the weekend. This
weekend is the beginning of the big money races of the year and Tim and
the crew are ready to meet the challenge.

up @ KC. Tim timed 5th quick from twenty-nine cars after he stopped the
qualifying clock at 11.919 seconds. Shaffer started 5th in heat race #2
and finished 4th. This lined The Aliquippa, PA Native up 4th in the dash
where he advanced to spots finishing 2nd.

The Steel City Outlaw took the green
flag for the forty lap main event from the outside pole position. Early on
Shaffer battled Dale Blaney for the top spot. The two drivers were inches
apart for 7 laps, on the 8th lap Shaffer grabbed the lead and checked out,
however the large lead came to an end on lap twenty when a huge clump of
mud (from the cushion) smashed the side panel in on top of the gas pedal,
forcing it to full throttle. Shaffer took immediate action and spun the CH
Motorsports #83 out on the back stretch. The diligent Call/Holbrook crew
led by Brian Kemenah made the necessary repairs and Shaffer rejoined the
field at the tail end. Shaffer fought back to finish 5th.

The
Kistler Engines, Kistler Racing Products, VRP Shocks sponsored CH
Motorsports No. 83 machine of Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook unloaded fast in
Freemont. Tim set quick time with a 12.777. In heat race #1 Shaffer
started 6th and finished fourth. Next up for Shaffer was the Fast Dash
where he started and finished first. This put The Steel City Outlaw on the
pole for the start of the 50 lap main event. When the race went green 4th
place starter Cole Duncan shot around the field on the outside to grab the
top spot with Shaffer in tow. However, It was shorted lived. Tim rocketed
around the leader on lap 9 and never looked back! At one point Shaffer had
a 10 second lead. In the end the CH No. 83 of Shaffer won by 9.6 seconds.
It was a dominate performance by the CH Motorsports Team. This was
Shaffer’s 10th career win at Freemont Speedway.

Post
race Quote from Shaffer in victory lane. “I was a little too easy at the
start. Cole (Duncan) got a good start and showed me the top side of turns
three and four and I was able to run him down and the car just kept
getting better and better. This is just an amazing night. It’s so much fun
to drive when Brian (Kemenah, crew chief) and the guys get the car that
good. It’s a long season yet. We’ll continue to work hard…tonight was just
our night. I was a bit nervous starting up front like that…you can seal a
tire up and go all the way to the back."

LIMA, Ohio (Friday, June 24, 2011) Tim fought a
Real Battle for a Great 2nd Place Finish.

After reading the run down on this race I was really
disappointed that I was not there to witness it. Tim did battle with
friend and fellow veteran Dale Blaney and local driver Kyle Sauder. When
it was all over Tim finished second behind Sauder. Tim fought hard trying
to pass Kyle on the bottom in the remain laps, but Sauder held his high
line and pulled off the Win. Its off to Fremont for the Speedweek Finally.
Tim goes into tonight with a lead over Blaney and Danny Smith. A top 5
should wrap it up. Go Tim!

The CH
Motorsports #83 machine backed by Kistler Engines, and Kistler Racing
Products qualified 5th quick from the 44 car field. In heat race #1
Shaffer grabbed the win, thus placing him the fast dash where he finished
a strong 2nd. At the start of A-main Tim jumped out into the lead and led
the first 13 (or 14) circuits. However, in the end Tim had to settle for a
3rd place finish after developing a slight rear tire problem.

Tim
timed 7th quick aboard his Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook owned #83 machine.
Shaffer finished 3rd in heat #3 and 4th in the Fast Dash. The CH
Motorsports crew tweaked on the J&J sprinter throughout the night trying
to stay one step ahead of the ever changing track conditions. The car and
Shaffer was ready for the thirty lap A-main event. In the "A" The Steel
City Outlaw used his Kistler power to advance from 4th to 2nd. Tim mounted
a late race charge, but ran out of laps!

Post race quote from Shaffer "It wasn't meant to be tonight. Dale and
George and those guys did a great job. We couldn't get the breaks tonight.
It's been a tough year already and hopefully during speedweek we can make
up some ground,"

"Hats
off to my guys this is such a great track to race on. Brian (crew chief,
Kemenah) and James and Five-O and Rob and everybody that works on this
thing. They give me such a great race car its a lot of fun. Stevie was
pretty good there at the beginning and it seemed like in lapped traffic he
got off his pace and we were able to capitalize", said Shaffer beside his
Kistler Engines, Kistler Racing Products backed #83.

The
Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook Racing machine backed by Kistler Engines, and
Kistler Racing Products qualified 12th fast from thirty-five. In the
fourth eight lap heat race Shaffer grabbed the third spot locking him into
the 30 lap A-main. The "A" was hard fought battle between many, but Tim
was never passed, he advanced two positions to finish 6th after starting
8th.

June 8, 2011 - All Stars, Fonda Speedway NY. The Steel City Outlaw pilots
the CH Motorsports #83 to victory!

Shaffer stopped the qualifying clock at 15.663 ~ 11th quick overall. The
Crew went to work on the J&J No. 83 looking for more speed on the BIG 1/2
mile New York track. They found it. In heat race #2 Tim grabbed the 2nd
spot with a fast car. The CH Crew had the car working perfect for the
A-main. In the thirty lap "A" Tim lined up 11th, but It didn't take long
for the Aliquippa, PA Native to get busy. Shaffer started passing cars @
the drop of the green flag. The Steel City Outlaw was using every inch of
the speedway to get the job done. In the end it paid off with Shaffer
sitting in the winners circle!

The
CH Motorsports 83 Team started the night by setting fast time. Tim circled
the fast 1/3 Mile semi-banked clay oval in 12.75 seconds. In heat #1
Shaffer advanced two spots to finish 4th. In the 30 lap main event The
Steel City Outlaw lined up 6th (outside row three) with a fast car,
however, all hopes of winning another main @ Freemont ended on the 1st lap
when Tim got upside down. Tim was ok, but done for the night.

Third Place finish at Attica June 2nd
brings another Hard Charger Award.

Bad luck in pulling qualifying pills and any other
problems resulting in poor starting positions in the "A's" has not stopped
Tim from good finishes in great runs. Yet again Tim get the hard charger
award, this time for passing 9 cars in the "A" for 3rd. We all know that
luck changes and Tim will be getting the Call/Holbrook 83 back home in
Victory Lane where he belongs!

What a difference from the first make up main event. Tim timed 9th
quick; he drove from forth to 2nd in heat race #1, and 4th
to 3rd in the Dash. In the A-main The Steel City Outlaw was
fast! The Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook Racing machine backed by Kistler
Engines, and Kistler Racing Products kept pace with the leader Jason
Myers. Tim was turning some of the fastest laps while reeling in Myers.
Just when Shaffer made his bid for the lead and win the caution flag flew.
On the restart Shaffer once again applied pressure to race leader Meyers,
but another caution flew foiling Tim’s plans. In the end Shaffer finished
2nd.!

May 28 – (make up main) All-Stars @ Fremont Speedway. The Steel City
Outlaw 24th (DNF) in A-main after flipping.

The CH Motorsports Team started the night off by qualifying 3rd.
In heat race #3 Shaffer started 6th and finished 5th.
This placed The Steel City Outlaw on the pole for the fast dash which he
won. Starting from the pole Shaffer was ready to race, but Mother Nature
had a different plan. The rain came down in buckets and the 30 lap A-main
was postponed to the 29th. When the “A” finally went green Rob
Chaney tangled with pole sitter Shaffer sending the CH Motorsports #83
flipping hard in turn #2. Tim was ok, but the car was in bad condition.

"Chaney got a little hot there in the corner and he got loose and stayed
in the gas and turned and came down and we met at the same place…it was a
heck of ride. After something like that to rebound and come back
strong…the guys did an awesome job and gave me a great race car," said
Shaffer beside his Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook Racing machine backed by
Kistler Engines and Kistler Racing Products.

The CH Crew, (with the help from other teams) rebuilt Shaffer’s #83
machine and had him ready for night #2 complete race program.

The
Call / Holbrook No. 83 timed 14th fast from huge 46 car All-Star field. In
heat race #2 Shaffer crossed the stripe 2nd, locking him into the A-main.
Shaffer started thirteenth in the 30 lap main event, and with a lot of
fast cars in front of him Tim knew getting to the front would be a
challenge. The Aliquippa, PA Native kept his elbows up and when the "dust"
settled finished 9th.

"The Steel City Outlaw" takes on the
WoO's at Attica, Finishes Third from his 23rd starting position.

Tim
put on a show for another strong finish, this time against the "World of
Outlaws". Tim did not qualify well at Attica, but that did not stop him.
He was able to avoid the "B" in this strong field of cars by finishing 3rd
in the 5th heat and making the transfer. Then Brian and the crew got to
work on setting up the car for the challenge of the "A". They must have
got it right because, Tim was able to pass most of the field. A 3rd place
finish in a WoO race after starting 23 is no easy feat, but he got it
done. Tim won another Hard Charger Award, giving the teams co-owner Janet
Holbrook a Podium finish for her Birthday.

No one thought there would be any racing at Fremont
Friday. It rained hard during the day and was still misting at race time.
The track crew worked hard on the track and it was left up to the drivers
to decide if it was raceable. The decision was yes, and the action was
under way. The conditions were tough early on and Tim missed the transfer
from the heat. He came back with a win in the "B" main, and put on a show
starting 16th and finishing 3rd in the "A". For his efforts Tim
received the hard charger award for the night. Way to go Tim!

May 6, 2011. World of
Outlaws, Rossburg, Ohio. The Steel City Outlaw 6th in Eldora A-main.

The
CH Motorsports #83(x) struggled a bit in qualifying turning a 13.560 (22nd
overall). In heat race #2 Shaffer started 6th and finished 5th (final
transfer spot). This locked the Call / Holbrook machine in to the main
event.........Crew Chief Brian Kemenah kept a close eye on the ever
changing track conditions, then applied the necessary adjustments to the
No. 83X of Shaffer. It worked! Tim drove from his 22nd starting spot to
finish 6th. It wasn't a win, but it was a strong finish. Tim Shaffer and
the CH Motorsports Crew never give up.

The
CH Motorsports #83 machine was FAST in Fremont. The Steel City Outlaw set
fast time from the 41 cars entered. In heat race # 1 Shaffer piloted the
Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook No. 83 to 3rd after starting 6th. This placed
Tim 4th for the start of the thirty lap A-main. In the "A" Shaffer battled
not only the stiff competition, but a fairly rough track surface too
(heavy rain all week). By lap 16 Shaffer was third and coming on strong!
On lap 23 The Steel City Outlaw grabbed the runner up spot and set his
sights on the leader (Dale Blaney)...With six laps to go the Aliquippa PA
Native made his move and took the lead and WIN! This was Tim's 9th win @
Fremont Speedway.

Post race quotes from Tim Shaffer, “My hats off to the Rich Farmer
(promoter) and all the guys here. They could have easily given up and
rained out, but they worked hard to get this show in. Yes it was rough,
but I’ve been on a lot worse. A lot of guys complain about a track like
this but it really does put the racer back into it and it takes some luck
too,”

“You had to be aggressive but patient. It seemed the harder you tried the
worst it got. So many saves…I don’t know how many,”

The
CH Motorsports #83 had another solid performance last night. Shaffer timed
11th quick from the large forty-eight car field. In heat race #3 Tim
started 4th and finished a strong second. This locked The Steel City
Outlaw into the 40 lap main event starting outside of row #4. The "A" was
very exciting with some extremely close wheel to wheel racing action. In
the end the CH Motorsports No. 83 finished 4th after starting eighth.

The
fans definitely got their money's worth!

Up
next for the CH #83 - April 15th & 16th (WoO) @ Paducah International
Raceway, KY and I-55
Raceway located in Pevely,MO. GO TIM!!

The temperature was cold, but the racing was hot!
The CH Motorsports No. 83 started 5th in heat race #2 and finished fourth.
This placed "The Steel City Outlaw" 12th on the A-main grid. When the
Thirty lap "A" went green the battle ensued. The race action was fierce
with some intense side-by-side battles throughout the twenty car field.
Shaffer had his elbows up and was working the track, searching for the
fastest way around the 1/3 mile Ohio speedway. On lap 21 the first and
only caution flag flew, Shaffer was 5th at the time and coming on strong.
In the end the CH Motorsports #83 of Shaffer passed 8 cars to finish 4th;
earning the Hard Charger award.

After having a little trouble during his heat race (6th); Shaffer
transferred to the main event via the B-main. Starting 16th in the A-main
Tim wasted no time making his presence known. By lap 14 the CH Motorsports
No. 83 was 7th and charging. On a lap 14 red flag stop Shaffer's left rear
tire went flat forcing him to the pits. The CH crew quickly put on a new
Good Year and The Steel City Outlaw rejoined the field (last) without
going a lap down. In the end Shaffer fought his way back up to finish
ninth overall. The "King of the 360's" finale is tonight. GO TIM!!

The
CH Motorsports Team dropped a 360 ci (Cubic Inch) Kistler power plant in
the J&J No. 83 looking to pick up where they left off last season @ East
Bay's "King of the 360's" ~ with a win. Shaffer lined up 6th for the 25
lap A-main and by the half-way point The Steel City Outlaw was third and
coming on strong. The caution flew with 7 laps to go. Shaffer was now
running second and closing fast! The CH Motorsports #83 was getting
faster as the race went on. With the crowd on their feet cheering Tim
chased down the leader, but ran out of laps. The CH Team is ready for
tonight's action.. GO TIM!!

Post race Quote from Tim Shaffer “You are always learning something
here. My hat is off the Al Varnadore and his track preparation crew
tonight. They gave us two lanes and a great racetrack. I’m lucky to finish
tonight because I ran over a torque tube from Godwin’s car. I heard it hit
under my car.”

Shaffer timed 9th fast from the 32 sprinters. Tim missed a
transfer spot (6th) in his heat race so he had to qualify through the
B-main. Which he did by finishing third (top 4). The CH Motorsports Team
would line 18th on the "A" grid with a fast car. Tim knew that getting to
the front would be a challenge, but one the Team was ready to face. When
the green flag dropped so did Tim's gas pedal. He was a man on a mission.
The No. 83x, J&J / Kistler machine was "hooked up" and moving forward. In
the end Shaffer crossed the line 9th. The Steel City Outlaw earned the "KSE Hard Charger Award" for
his efforts (18th to 9th).

Tim had
another decent night in FL. During qualifying Shaffer stopped the clock
with a 13.373 (forth overall). In heat race #4 Tim started 4th and
finished 2nd. The CH Motorsports #83x lined up 6th in the dash and ended
up 4th; however, the A-main didn't go exactly as planned. The CH
Motorsports No. 83x dropped two spots to finish 6th......The third and
final WoO race @ Volusia is tonight. GO TIM!!

The
fresh motor in the J&J / CH Motorsports #83(x) is hittin' on all
cylinders! Tim timed 12th fast (13.389) from the very competitive
thirty-five car field. In heat race #2 Shaffer grabbed the win from the
outside pole and was now locked in the fast dash where he started and
finished 7th. Next up for the Aliquippa, PA Native was the thirty lap main
event. The CH Machine of Shaffer battled his way from 7th to 4th. It was a
solid night for the Call / Holbrook team. The No. 83(x) Team is hoping to
better that finish by three tonight. GO TIM!!

The
CH Motorsports No. 83 had a motor expire during the heat race. The
diligent CH crew put a new Kistler bullet in the chamber and had Tim back
on the track for the B-main. Shaffer started ninth and finished 6th with a
very "tight" handling car.

Feb. 4, 2011 - Ocala
Speedway, All Star Circuit of Champions. The Steel City Outlaw grabs his
